Larentzakis: “I met Bartzokas’ expectations – James will not have a good time with Walkup”

He spoke for everyone and everything Giannoulis Larentzakis in Cosmote TV!

His guard Olympiakou was invited to the subscription channel a few hours before traveling with the rest of the “red and white” to Kaunas for the second Final Four of his career in Euroleague. The 29-year-old recalled his early years in basketball, the teams he played for and the experiences he gained.

In fact, he also referred to his start in the Piraeus team saying: “when I came to Olympiakos I realized

how much work I have to put in to be able to stand out and meet the demands of the team“, while he also made a special mention of the gymnast, Andreas Gatzoulis who “without him I would not have achieved anything».

For Giorgos Bartzokas he emphasized: “Everyone was and is on my side. Old teammates, now and of course coach Bartzokas. He may have doubted me, but he saw how much I wanted it and how much I was trying to improve. He is a fair man. He gave me opportunities and I thank him. I believe I met his expectations» he emphasized and continued about the Final Four:

“We are all more ready. Last year, we had no image. We didn’t even know the procedures and on the field we lost. This time we also have the experience, we are at a better level both mentally and competitively. We are ready and very confident».

Finally, he couldn’t help but comment on the “duel” with Monaco and him Mike James where they were teammates at the Colossus of Rhodes:

“We were team mates at Colossus, he is a player with tremendous talent and if he has a clear mind he can adapt to all defences. We have a gun called Thomas Walkup and I don’t think James will have a good time with him. She will… feel him!“, were, among other things, his words Giannouli Larentzakis.
